  • "Saturn V specification cross reference index."

    The purpose of the Saturn V Specification Cross Reference Index is to Supplement CM-004-001-2H, the Saturn V Specification Index. It is intended to provide a convenient means of finding the specifications by specification number which is cross referenced to Specification Matrix Number and contract end item number. More complete information on specifications including preparation, approval, and contractual status as well as all effective Specification Change Notices (SCN's) can be obtained from CM-004-001-2H, the Saturn V Specification Index which contains the master listing of the same specifications arranged in logical management and functional groupings and listed in Specification Matrix number order. More complete information on hardware can be obtained from various Saturn V Configuration Accounting Indices which list items by in contract end item (CEI) number order.; This document supplements the Saturn V specification index CM -004-001-2H of the same issued date.

The booklet has been prepared in five sections. Section I contains the introductory material and a description of the Saturn V mobile launcher (ML). Section II contains information on the umbilical equipment. Section III contains information on the servicing equipment, both fixed and mobile. Section IV contains information on the access equipment. Section V contains information on the handling and auxiliary equipment.
  • "Saturn V ground winds program."

    The concept on Saturn V was to "budget" an amount for the dynamic portion of the wind load as a factor on the steady state drag. Wind tunnel tests paralleled the development and fabrication phases. The results indicated that the system was unable to withstand the design winds; thus, a decision was made to implement a viscous damper "fix" on the facility vehicle at the Kennedy Space Center. Damping tests in the Vertical Assembly Building (VAB) will have been completed and response tests on the pad will be in progress at the time of this symposium. This paper will present the history and status of this program to date.
